Down By The Riverside

Sign in to edit

"Down By The Riverside" by The Reverend Horatio Duncan and Amos Sweets was featured as a downloadable track on Just Dance 2 and Just Dance 3, but became unavailable for purchase following the shutdown of the Wii Shop Channel on January 30, 2019, and the delisting of most Just Dance 3 DLCs from the Xbox 360 Marketplace on August 20, 2023.

The song remains playable on Just Dance: Summer Party, Just Dance: Best Of, Just Dance Now, Just Dance Unlimited, 舞力无限, and Just Dance+. It was also planned to be on Just Dance: Greatest Hits, but was scrapped for unknown reasons. It was also featured on 舞力全开：活力派 before the shutdown of the game.

Appearance of the Dancer[]

Original[]

The dancer is a woman named Faith. She has long ultramarine blue curly hair and wears a bright sky blue robe with white and dark blue details along with a pair of magenta high heels. She also wears a violet glove.

Just Dance 3/Just Dance: Best Of[]

In Just Dance 3 and Just Dance: Best Of, she is slightly brighter, her face is more visible, and the dark blue elements of her robe are darker.

Remake[]

In the remake, her robe is now orange and purple, and her hair is now purple. Her high heels and glove are both now red. She has a more realistic appearance as well.

Background[]

Original[]

The routine is set in a dark teal room with a stained glass window and orbs floating aruond. On each side there are five spotlights on the floor that flash according Faith's moves.

Just Dance 3 (Xbox 360)/Just Dance: Best Of[]

In the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3 and Just Dance: Best Of, the background is almost the same, but the fountain lights are more clearer and the window is brighter. There is also fog in the background.

Remake[]

In the remake, the entire background is now tinted in a shade of pink.

Gold Moves[]

There are 3 Gold Moves in this routine:

Gold Moves 1 and 2: Raise your arms up.

Trivia[]

General[]

  • At 1 minute and 55 seconds, Down By The Riverside holds the record for being the fifth shortest song in Just Dance history, as well as the first song in the series to be under two minutes.
    • Down By The Riverside is also the shortest song on Just Dance 2.
  • Being released in 1918, Down By The Riverside is the oldest track on Just Dance 2 and the oldest downloadable track.
  • In the original preview gameplay, the artists were credited as "Extreme Music".
    • Extreme Music is actually the label for the artist of this song.

Routine[]

  • As seen in the original preview gameplay, the pictogram triangle was originally supposed to beat twice as fast.
    • The light ray effect on Faith was also supposed to be much more intense.
  • In the Just Dance Now files, there is a pictogram that has oddly not been recolored.
    • Two other beta pictograms, which are recolored like the other ones, can be seen as well.
  • In Just Dance 2016 and Just Dance 2018’s Just Dance Unlimited, the title is spelled as Down By The RiverSide.
    • As of an unknown date, this has been fixed.
  • Two sets of glowing crystals appear on the menu banner and map background on Just Dance Unlimited, instead of one.
  • On the Spanish-language version of Just Dance+, Faith’s name has been literally translated as "Fe".[4]
